Snodgrass only signed for the club in January from Hull City but has failed to win over fans and his manager since arriving.

One club whose supporters would take him back in an instant are his former side Leeds United.

Snodgrass played for Leeds between 2008 and 2012, becoming a fan favourite before being sold to Norwich City, following Jonny Howson who had moved months earlier.

Sizeable difficulties for Leeds would be West Ham’s desire to get the £10 million back they paid for Snodgrass in January, while there could also be competition from Premier League sides.
